For the starting version. Each part is measured the same way for every laptop (processor and graphics from benchmark results) and moves up or down with what reviewers praise or criticise.

Pros

  • Gaming speed is high for the price
  • 144Hz screen suits games
  • Slim (21.7 mm) for the class
  • Stays cool enough
  • Rear HDMI 2.1, Wi-Fi 6E and USB-C charging
  • Strong value for gamers on a tight budget
  • 144 Hz screen with good viewing angles

Cons

  • Keys feel loose and wobbly
  • Small touchpad with a cheap click
  • Thick old-style bezels
  • Speakers lack bass
  • Loud fans at full speed
  • Battery and build only average
  • Screen is dim (~250 nits) and covers only about two-thirds of sRGB
  • FoneArena

    Tested Indian B7V (Ryzen 7 7735HS, RTX 4060 45W, 16GB, 1TB) at Rs 93,900: lots of gaming speed for under a lakh, if you can live with the keyboard and touchpad.

  • Instalki.plFeb 2025

    Tested Polish B7UC-258XPL (Ryzen 5 7535HS, RTX 3050 4GB at 40-45 W, 16GB DDR5-5600, 512GB): a sensible budget gaming laptop that plays current games at 1080p with lowered settings.
